Online search indicates that one should have the ability to change the color of individual panes by menu->settings->colors. However, there is no selection on the popup menu for individual elements and the only pane that is changed is the reading pane. Is the ability to select individual panes and OBE feature? I tried userChrome.css but that had no effect. ( config element ...stylesheet was set to true).

Some CSS codes have changed in recent TB versions. Try the following code (works for me in TB Mac)

/* Threads Pane font and background*/
      #threadTree tr[is="thread-row"] {
      font-size: 12pt ! important;
      font-family: Times ! important;
      color: navy ! important;
      }
      .tree-table  { 
      background-color: lightgrey !important; 
      }
      /* Folder Pane font and background*/
      #folderPane {
      font-size: 12pt ! important;
      font-family: Times ! important;
      background-color: lightgrey ! important;
      color: navy ! important;
      }

I'm using several CSS codes in my userChrome.css file to customise the Thunderbird GUI (see image). In addition to a screen shot please post the CSS code you tried without success si we can test it.

Threads pane and folders pane (I copied this snippet of css from a web posting):

       /* Threads Pane font and background*/
       #threadTree > treechildren {
       font-size: 12pt ! important;
       font-family: Times ! important;
       background-color: lightgrey ! important;
       color: navy ! important;
       }
       /* Folder Pane font and background*/
       #folderTree > treechildren {
       font-size: 12pt ! important;
       font-family: Times ! important;
       background-color: lightgrey ! important;
       color: navy ! important;
       }
